e-books for tomeraider

hi.
i've been trying to download e-books (tr3 files) from memoware for tomeraider (registered) on my ipaq 4150 but can't seem to do so.

basically i keep getting a page of computer code when i try to do so.

can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?
is it possible to download tr3 files to my ipaq directly or do i have to do so to my laptop first?

any help much appreciated.
thanks.

do you have the tr3 version of tomeraider.. as they've updated the format from the older tr2 one.

i am trying to get files from memoware using my ipaq 4150 over a wi-fi connection. there's no problem with the wi-fi connection; its just when i try to download a tr3 file, instead of getting the usual download dialogue box, as one should, i get a page of meaningless text, presumably computer code, and my ipaq freezes needing a soft reset

Internet explorer isn't great for grabbing files off the internet. You might want to give netfront a go... or download to your pc and then send them across.

so your saying that it is possible to download these files directly to my ipaq (and not necessarily thru the desktop version of tomeraider).
but just not with pocketIE.

thats my guess... it sounds more like a web-browser download problem than a tomeraider problem to me.

Yep, that's it exactly. Your browser is opening the files, not saving them. PIE doesn't have an option to right-click on a link & SAVE AS, it just opens.
